I am also hitting this issue for few weeks now when trying to build a iso
using live-build.

I tried explicitly telling live build to remove the
nvidia-tesla-kernel-support (by using nvidia-tesla-kernel-support- ), and
even setting a pat hold before package are installed, but still something
tries to install it and it fails.

My guess, is that something does recommend or suggest it, and the install
is attempted.

I do not install it explicitly in my package list, so that is the only
explanation.

It is rather annoying, and I do not see a way to workaround it.

I do not personally need Nvidia support, but live build does support
installing nvidia-kernel-dkms , so theoretically it is possible.
